It’s all in the details

Canva offers more than just superimposing your design on a mug mockup, hoodie mockup⁠(opens in a new tab or window) or video mockup⁠(opens in a new tab or window). Do you want it spread across the canvas or placed neatly at the center? Your mockup is a preview of your aesthetic, so whether you’re creating brand recall or building your design portfolio, ensure your design looks balanced and coherent with your vision.

After uploading your design, use the options available to adjust your image. Scale it to either fit or fill the space on the mug. Align your design to the edges, and rotate or flip it to give a new perspective. Preview how your online mug design would look in real life, then save it when you’re happy with the final result.
